Service disruptions do occur and I believe, are occurring more often. I can't think of anyone that I know that hasn't been affected by something during the last couple of years.

With the northern states expecting a "catastrophic" (per The Farmer's Almanac) winter, I wonder what preparations the majority of those people up north are/have made.....

I think there was a winter preparation thread a few weeks ago, at least I think it was on here. I answered the question asked, "What are you doing for winter preparations". EDIT There is a thread, and you started it, DOH..... HERE


Now, the LONG lines of people in Houston, trying to get gas in their cars and cans a day or two AFTER Ike shocked me. What ever happened to Gas up before the storm?? They couldn't have used much, if any gas during the storm, so why was there a great need of gas then?
